This is a seated show.

Esteemed songwriter and Railroad Earth front man, Todd Sheaffer, hits the road with Colorado songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Chris Thompson of CORAL CREEK. These intimate shows feature the songs that have made Railroad Earth one of the hottest tickets on the Newgrass and Jamband festival circuit, presented by Sheaffer in a solo format with instrumental accompaniment by Thompson on guitar & bass.

The show includes two sets of original music, with Thompson kicking off the evening followed by Sheaffer performing solo and with accompaniment. As any Todd fan would expect, every show is different and each performance takes the audience on a ride that frequently ends with a cacophonous singalong dance party at your seat.

Todd Sheaffer is the front man, guitarist and principal songwriter for the legendary jamgrass ensemble Railroad Earth and New Jersey roots rockers From Good Homes. A prolific songwriter, Sheaffer is revered by his fans and admired by his peers for his genius songcraft, his melodic guitar solos and the power and character of his voice.
